This, from the man personally responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, including the "suicide" of an eminent scientist? Get in the bin you hypocritical, narcissistic, fucking clown. 🧐🙄🤦

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Wonder who translates the Kremlin talking points for him

Finally, some self-reflection from War Criminal Ali. Begone you utter murderous clown. 🧐

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

How long before the media covering him just get sick of the bullshit and say “no, we’d rather not hear from him today?”

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@AOC Hmmmm. 🧐

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

These parody accounts are getting harder to separate from genuine accounts. 🧐

[Narinder Kaur @narindertweets]

Britain's greatest leader in a long time. I don't care what you say because he just gave a master class in why Farage and Co are absolute charlatans that would have had this monster walking free had they been in charge! Clueless suited up hooligans who just wanted POC attacked in this country and caused riots where police were brutally attacked.

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

Hmmm. Hypocrisy on the left? Never! I guess some people forget that the Internet always remembers. 🧐

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@AdamGiddins @jessphillips Are you saying she deserves to be buried? That's a bit harsh. 🧐

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@CopOfTheNorth I'm an Altberg fan. Comfortable, sturdy, long lasting, and agile enough to run in. Expensive, but worth every penny. 🧐

@ReasonableCop Sarcasm doesn't travel well via social media. Some things AI can do, some it can't. At least not yet. We still, for a variety of reasons, need human boots on the ground. AI should be seen as a tool, not a replacement. 🧐

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@Brick_Cop @metpoliceuk I love when the OK dogs visit us. Such a huge boost for morale. 🧐❤️

A brilliant, and eloquent, synopsis of the dangers of revisionist education being touted by the Left, by my learned colleague. 🧐

[Dr Rakib Ehsan @rakibehsan]

"The curiosity and enterprise of our young must not be sacrificed by the indoctrinators of the Left - and their warped view of British history.

The exclusion of national pride and tradition would be hugely dangerous."

My latest on p.14 of today's Daily Mail.

@ReasonableCop I want to see AI carry out arrests, patrol the streets, do face to face engagement, perform search and rescue on the ground, deal with/detain 136 people, etc. Can't wait. Can you? 🧐

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

Unpopular opinion, I know, but I agree with you. In fact, I believe the House of Lords should be dismantled. Or, it should be reformed by elected Lords only. 🧐

[Inspector Gadget @InspGadgetBlogs]

Loads of people (rightfully) losing their minds over Sadiq Khan and his knighthood. Here's another utter disgrace. (A lifetime £361 per day attendance allowance, plus travel expenses and subsidised restaurant facilities for keeping Boris Johnson's diary).

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

Comments switched off? I wonder why? 🧐🙄🤦

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

Before we ring in 2025, let’s look back at everything we achieved together to make London a fairer, safer and greener city in 2024.

My ambition for 2025 remains the same: to see every Londoner thrive and succeed.

@narindertweets Critiquing the idea of rewarding failure is "racism" now? 🧐🙄🤦

[Narinder Kaur @narindertweets]

What a wonderful morning knowing racists are having complete and utter meltdown because a son of a bus driver who grew up on a council estate, was voted three times to be the London Mayor and will now have to call him "Sir".

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@Mr_Andrew_Fox Not going to lie. I'm ally jealous of that right now. 🧐😏

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@Brick_Cop @ukhomeoffice @axon_enterprise I feel like we're slowly creeping towards routinely armed officers. It's no longer if, but when. Taser will be the first step, firearms will be the second. Mark my words. Sooner or later, whether we like it or not, we'll end up having no choice for safety's sake. Am I wrong? 🧐

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

@Mr_Andrew_Fox That escalated quickly. 🧐😳😏

[John Simpson @_DrJohnSimpson_]

Controlled immigration, NOT zero immigration. Maybe try engaging the last two brain cells you have left, by realising there is more nuance to this argument than just black and white. 🧐🙄🤦

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Given we’ve now learned that Musk would rather employ immigrants than Americans…

Would be great to know if @Nigel_Farage and @reformparty_uk agree with this stance

I’m sure their supporters will be intrigued to know…
